You take my breath away (Print)

I painted "You Take Me Breath Away" to portray an intimate, charged moment between two figures. Working in a monochrome palette helped me focus on touch and form; the feather was added as a fragile counterpoint to the intensity. I built layered texture and deliberate brushwork to bring out the hair, skin, and the grip at the shoulders.

Which detail draws you in most—the feather, the hands, or the black space that surrounds them? This piece would sit nicely as an intimate anchor on a bedroom or living-room wall.
